    Have you created the database, user and password added the user to the DB and modified the config file before uploading?

    With most scripts all of the above must be done before you run any install program.

    So... you bought the script from eBay and now you give It away for free with that link of yours here in DP. Right?

    Well, the script is an old (from March of 2004) Prozilla script. You won't get any support from Prozilla unless it was actually them you bought the script from on eBay, which I doubt. Their terms say that the scripts alone can not be sold, they must be sold as an established site with domain and hosting. Hope you didn't pay too much for it.
    At any rate, it should still work. You just have to set up the database, create user, grant permissions for user, and if the self installer doesn't work, you have to import the database files (sql file) manually.
    If you need help doing any that, shoot me a PM and I'll try to help you out.
